Is stable Korean support available?

---

I'm probably not supposed to start a new thread for this, but I've tried googling and haven't found a viable solution.

Does anyone know of anything that will give me stable Korean support for my TyTN II? I just need the phone to be able to read Korean, don't need writing support. Preferably free.

When I searched the forums, the solutions available all cause a clash with WM6.1 somewhere, for example, Asukal's Korean support either cause the dialer to malfunction and freeze the phone, or it kills Windows Live.

Diopen costs money, and is overkill for what I want. I have no need for writing in Korean. For some reason, it also clashes with Spb PocketPlus. After installing the trial, it would work for a couple of resets, and then cause the phone to be unable to boot.

Note: I'm using Dutty's WM6.1 dated 06 March, 08 and have tried to couple it with each of the three original 6.1 radios.

yes i am also looking for something like this

Korean support

I'm also looking to be able to view Korean.

I found this today about viewing Chinese. I wonder if it's possible to take the same approach for Korean:

I'm not sure about chinese input on smartphones, but here is how to view chinese/asian characters:
1. Find your favorite chinese truetype font and copy it to \windows\. I use mUniFontM and will use it in my examples.
2. Add the following registry string values:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\FontPath\FontPath=\Windows
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink\Segoe Condensed=\Windows\mUniFontM.ttf,mUniFontM
3. Restart.

You'll find a ton of posts on the net about how to do this but they may reference Arial, Times New Roman, etc. The new trick is that for wm6 standard (smartphone), it now uses the font 'Segoe Condensed' so those references to the other fonts will not work on wm6 standard.

I think this is the same method as used by one of Asukal's cabs for Korean reading support.

HangleNo5 replaces the system font, but that causes Windows Live to stop connecting. At least, that's what happens when I try it on my TyTN II.

Why not try diopen 6.0
they give u a few days to try out before it stops working on you. But its only 20bucks for the program.

And it works good. Tried it on my tilt.

Well, as I mentioned in the first post, I'm just looking for the ability to view Korean. Using Diopen is overkill, as it also installs writing support.

But it doesn't matter now, I'm using Asukal's korechithai cab, and it works fine after some experimenting.
I just have to install CE-Star first, and then use CE Star's keyboard, instead of the OEM one. Otherwise, the dialler goes crazy, and using the OEM keyboard always gives me pinyin/romaji.
